Upper Feather River Watershed 30-meter Basin Characterization Model - Monthly Historical Climate and Hydrology
This data release includes the revised downscaled climate inputs and hydrologic outputs from the Basin Characterization Model (BCM) version 8 (v8), described in Flint and others (2021a), in a 30 by 30-meter spatial resolution at a monthly time step from water years 1896 to 2024 for the upper Feather River watershed. This data release includes five child items: 1. 30-year summaries, 2. Model Archive, 3. Monthly BCM hydrology variables, 4. Monthly climate variables, and 5. Water year summaries.
VERSION HISTORY:
Revised: February 27, 2026; Data release corrected to fix error in the original model parameters.
First posted: March 25, 2025 at https://doi.org/10.5066/P1QA5FLG (deprecated data release)
